@adhoniran I'm afraid the screenshots aren't showing. Could you try to upload them via GitHub's web interface?

I've reclassified this as a feature request, as upon further consideration I don't believe the error message can be considered as a bug. The exception is not unhandled as the original issue suggests; rather the error message is simply presented in its raw form to the user.

I agree about the feature request classification, I can treat the main error reasons and write a code proposal.
